Gartner® 2021 Magic Quadrant™ for Network Firewalls
Ultra High-Performance Network Security
Digital enterprises are processing vast amounts of encrypted traffic and content rich data along with an increased emphasis on optimized user experiences. The digital attack surface has spawned new, complex forms of attacks that require advanced protection to be applied at anytime, anywhere the threat is discovered. Today’s next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) must reliably handle large volumes of network and cloud traffic, provide consolidated advanced security in a smaller, more efficient physical footprint, and accommodate new security requirements such as extensive inspection of encrypted traffic for sophisticated malware without impacting performance.
The new FortiGate 6000 NGFW appliances feature the latest Fortinet innovation, to deliver leading edge security, performance, and connectivity for the most demanding network needs. The 6000 series combines unprecedented threat protection and SSL inspection performance in an easy to manage, compact appliance.
FortiGate Ultra High-Performance Next-Generation Firewalls include:
Industry’s highest NGFW and threat protection throughput in a compact 3U appliance
Inspection of encrypted traffic for malware at breakthrough speeds
Load balancing of network traffic to support very high connection rates
New architectural hardware designed for scale and resilience
High density network interfaces with 10G/25G/40G and 100G connectivity
Security Fabric integration for shared intelligence, transparent visibility, and security controls across the entire attack surface
